Chains and Rotators

I became interested in cycling 3 years ago when I traveled to Burlington, Vermont to watch my Dad and brother complete the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Ride to Cure 100 mile bike ride. As soon as I saw them cross that finish line, I just knew it was something I had to do. I did my first ride in Lacrosse, Wisconsin in August of 2010, my second ride in Death Valley, California in October of 2011 and am getting ready to complete my third ride in Lacrosse, Wisconsin in a few weeks. Each of these rides takes an unbelievable amount of training. We also raise money and awareness so that we can find a cure for this terrible disease. I will not stop pedaling until that cure is found. These photographs are just another way I raise awareness for diabetes, my brother never gets a break from this disease.
